Apart from all the juicy goodness in the presentation (and there was a
lot), I really liked the way you implemented the code using some real-
world examples from your day job at Navigenics. It was fascinating to
hear you talk about the kind of challenges you face and the kind of
techniques you're using to solve them. Also, the way you managed to
incorporate some strawman code based on Neil Gafter's surprise
announcement about closures was very cool ;)

There's an interesting talk on TED by David Agus (co-founder of
Navigenics) giving a high-level scientific overview of the work done
there:

It will be interesting to see Dick's updated presentation at the
Oracle conference, where hopefully the closures API will be ready :)
